arXiv:2603.08572v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Learning natural, stable, and compositionally generalizable whole-body control policies for humanoid robots performing simultaneous locomotion and manipulation (loco-manipulation) remains a fundamental challenge in robotics. Existing reinforcement learning approaches typically rely on a single monolithic policy to acquire multiple skills, which often leads to cross-skill gradient interference and motion pattern conflicts in high-degree-of-freedom systems. As a result, generated behaviors frequently exhibit unnatural movements, limited stability, and poor generalization to complex task compositions. To address these limitations, we propose MetaWorld-X, a hierarchical world model framework for humanoid control. Guided by a divide-and-conquer principle, our method decomposes complex control problems into a set of specialized expert policies (Specialized Expert Policies, SEP). Each expert is trained under human motion priors through imitation-constrained reinforcement learning, introducing biomechanically consistent inductive biases that ensure natural and physically plausible motion generation. Building upon this foundation, we further develop an Intelligent Routing Mechanism (IRM) supervised by a Vision-Language Model (VLM), enabling semantic-driven expert composition. The VLM-guided router dynamically integrates expert policies according to high-level task semantics, facilitating compositional generalization and adaptive execution in multi-stage loco-manipulation tasks.

arXiv:2509.14980v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Mobile manipulation requires the coordinated control of a mobile base and a robotic arm while simultaneously perceiving both global scene context and fine-grained object details. Existing single-view approaches often fail in unstructured environments due to limited fields of view, exploration, and generalization abilities. Moreover, classical controllers, although stable, struggle with efficiency and manipulability near singularities. To address these challenges, we propose M4Diffuser, a hybrid framework that integrates a Multi-View Diffusion Policy with a novel Reduced and Manipulability-aware QP (ReM-QP) controller for mobile manipulation. The diffusion policy leverages proprioceptive states and complementary camera perspectives with both close-range object details and global scene context to generate task-relevant end-effector goals in the world frame. These high-level goals are then executed by the ReM-QP controller, which eliminates slack variables for computational efficiency and incorporates manipulability-aware preferences for robustness near singularities. Comprehensive experiments in simulation and real-world environments show that M4Diffuser achieves 7 to 56 percent higher success rates and reduces collisions by 3 to 31 percent over baselines. Our approach demonstrates robust performance for smooth whole-body coordination, and strong generalization to unseen tasks, paving the way for reliable mobile manipulation in unstructured environments.
